Minnesota Lynx sign Australian Rachel Jarry

Australian forward Rachel Jarry finally has made it to the Minnesota Lynx.

Acquired in a draft-day trade with Atlanta in 2011, the Lynx on Monday, Feb. 11, announced they have signed the 21-year-old Olympian.

"Already a five-year (professional) veteran at 21, she has proven to be a difference-maker in Australia and should be able to make an immediate impact in the WNBA," Lynx executive vice president Roger Griffith said of the 6-foot-2 Jarry in a statement.

Jarry spent the past five seasons playing professionally in the Women's National Basketball League in Australia. This season, she is averaging 13.9 points and 7.4 rebounds per game. She made her Olympic debut last summer, helping the Australians to a bronze medal.
